This week club member Matt Boshcka will be speaking about his recent trip to Malawi a country in East Africa. Matt is creating a project to support schools, safety and sustenance in the Village of Kande, Malawi.
Our club member Gayle Dolle received the Outstanding Volunteer Fundraiser Award. This award is given each year by the Upper Mississippi Valley Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP). Gayle received this honor for all her tireless work on the 2025 WALK TO DEFEAT ALS La Crosse.
Last week's club meeting was at the Rivoli Arts District (RAD). Teddy Eck, Executive Director of the RAD gave us a presentation and tour of the facility. A great addition to downtown La Crosse.
Once again, Valley View will be participating in the Rotary Lights parade that kicks off the lighting of Riverside Park on Friday, November 28.
If you can help decorate the Moon Tunes van, meet at the home of Julie Nelson, 907 King St. in La Crosse, at 4 pm on Friday, November 28.
Even if you aren't able to help with the decorating, you are invited to walk in the parade and hand out can coozies and candy canes.The parade starts at 5:00 pm.
We don't have a specific spot in the lineup, so start looking on the corner of 6th and King until you find where we have landed.
You are also welcome to contact Julie Nelson, Mark Etrheim or Holly Fisher for more guidance.
This is our club's night to support Rotary Lights. We will be needing at least 10-12 volunteers per shift. Please, sign-up below to work 1 or 2 shifts. This is a fun event!
Join us on Zoom if unable to meet with us in person.
